GALLIGAN: What to Expect From DePaul in Matchup with Texas A&M

After a hot start from DePaul, Oklahoma gave them all they could down the stretch, but the Blue Demons finished on top 90-79. 

The Sooners, lead by senior Gabbi Ortiz, were able to cut the lead to 6 several times, but were unable to get any closer. Credit to the Blue Demons who handled the Sooner second-half runs and were able to respond with five players finishing in double figures. 

Amarah Coleman and Kelly Campbell lead the way for the DePaul finishing with 17 points each. Mart'e Grays came up huge in the fourth quarter and finishing the game with 16.

This is a DePaul team who shoots the ball extremely well beyond the arc, finishing the game 12-for-24 at 50 percent. They did a great job stretching the floor, moving the ball and finding open looks. Down the stretch, they played with poise, responding to Oklahoma's runs.

DePaul is No. 6 in the nation in scoring,averaging close to 83 points a game. Heading into Sunday's matchup versus Texas A&M, I'm anticipating a high scoring and extremely exciting matchup between the two, as the Aggies average 77 points a game and are coming off an 89-76 win over Drake. Led by freshman phenom Chennedy Carter, one of the nations top scorers and Khaalia Hillsman, a 6-foot-5 senior force inside.

Containing Carter and limiting Hillsman's paint touches, along with handling Texas A&M's defensive pressure will be key to the Blue Demons' success.

In order for the Aggies to win, they'll have to rely on their defense and do a great job of defending the 3-point line. They also need to push the ball in transition and win the rebounding battle.
